     Hopefully this will work.  I hope it does.  My Buddy's three sons with their catch.  They had caught five others, close to the same size and threw them back, and would have thrown two of these back, but all three had swallowed the hook too far down.  As you can see there is no need of a cooler for the PBR. ;)  You can't see it well, but there is a nice COLD Pabst Blue Ribbon, behind them, it is between the two on the right. 8)

     Stoker, my Buddy and his Wife are in Havre now building an assisted living facility.  This was at Martin Creek Slough, in Noxon Reservoir, in Trout Creek, Mt.  He has done some fishing on the reservoir in Havre, and loves it!  Caught some nice walleye, and pike there.  I wish I was there now.  Not Havre, but in Thompson Falls!  Havre is too cold!

     Yeah, KH, my luck ice fishing was rather lackluster also.  I tried it for the first time last year, only had one fish on, and nothing to write home about, and lost it just as I was pulling it out of the ice.  That was after taking a rather FAST fall on the ice after I stood up from my chair.  Later a guy at one of the restaurants in town, told me he just uses a towel, and when he gets the fish's head up through the hole, he flops the towel in the fish's mouth, and it closes down, like an alligator will do, and he just pulls them out, without a gaff.  Sounds plausible.  I would sure like to catch some like those, though for sure.  I would be very happy! ;) ;D

got this 21 in walleye this evening on a marmooska jig while fishing for crappies and bluegills.
this is the first walleye I have caught from this lake and hopefully not the last.

soon to be introduced to hot oil and a cast iron skillet.

The towel trick works great for pike, and if you don't have a towel, you can use your  hand.....once!

Nice fish Kevin. pink/white and green/white Marmooska's are my number one drops. Love 'em.
Only when the last tree has died and the last river has been poisoned and the last fish has been caught will we realize we cannot eat money.
